Sir Stirling Moss has been revealed as the headline Honouree of the Amelia Island Concours, taking place from 13-15 March 2015 – almost two decades since the racing legend opened the inaugural event in 1996.
To mark the occasion, event organisers have gathered a stunning collection of the driver's racing cars, including the Mercedes-Benz 300SLR in which he won the 1955 Mille Miglia, Tourist Trophy and Targa Florio.
The W196 Monoposto in which he won his first World Championship Grand Prix – his home event at Aintree – will join the 300SLR, while the streamliner in which he led at Monza – his last Formula One race for Mercedes – will also be on display.
"Sir Stirling Moss set us on our path in 1996," said event founder Bill Warner. "To have him and his Mercedes-Benz racers from the manufacturer's highly successful 1955 season on the field is a fantasy come true for us."
